    Here you can see five beautiful pictures I took while passing Belarus, I enjoyed the landscapes, beautiful architectings and views, and of course the beautiful colors of the early summer with the open sky and some clouds, also the beautiful people walking on the streets of Minsk and Brest where I passed...

    The spirit of communism still lives in Minsk. Though I'm an anti-communist I think it's good that they didn't ruin all the communist monuments, because if they did Mink wouldn't have the charm it has now. For me, it's a lovely and free place without any foreign banks, petrol-stations, billboards and multi-national companies...well, except McDonald's.

    Nature: one of the features of Belarus. I always admire it when I drive through the country but unfortunately I still had no time to undertake a thorough exploration of it:))

    The heart of the country is its capital. But if you look for the soul, you should visit one of numerous small Belarusian villages. Perhaps, wooden painted cottages, bumpy roads, people driving a horse cart, gees stepping in a chain one by one to a pond nearby, or a shepherd turning its herd of cows back home after a long day grazing won't be a picture which you've desired to see. It depends on the taste surely. If you travel to the country not only for catching on the most famous activities, if you aim to visit more than just main points of interests, you won't regret about a day spent in a village.

    In inviting you to visit this seemingly unremarkable corner of Belarus with its quiet river Ptich'(which once was one of the waterways called 'from the Vikings to the Greeks') and its inviting name, like a tune of a faraway fife, 'Du-du-t-ki'...,we would like to give you pleasure of acquaintance with the history and culture of this land, its traditions, nature, customs and manners.

    Let the smell of fresh shavings in an ancient joiner'sworkshop, the reflection of the raw clay reviving in the potter's hands,the rippling of water near the moss-covered oaks, the squeak of the mill and the sound of an anvil, the taste of cottage cheese and exciting fragrance of bread, baked right before your eyes return you for a moment to the almost forgotten childhood sensations and remind that the joy of life is that we do not live in vain, and nothing ends when we leave this world...

    • In the region near Tschernobil you can still see the traces of the nuclear pollution in 1988.

    If you are interested in this it is wearth a day trip.
